Chemistry Question on Hydrocarbons

Among the alkenes which one produces tertiary butyl alcohol on acid hydration

A

CH3−CH2−CH=CH2CH_3 - CH_2 - CH = CH_2

B

CH3−CH=CH−CH3CH_3 - CH = CH - CH_3

C

(CH3)2C=CH2(CH_3)_2C = CH_2

D

CH3−CH=CH2CH_3 - CH = CH_2

Answer

(CH3)2C=CH2(CH_3)_2C = CH_2

Explanation

Solution

Iso-butylene directly add a molecule of water in presence of HSO4H_SO_4 as catalyst to form tertiary butyl alcohol.
